Aber warum soll man die Entwicklungskosten des Model 3, Model Y, des Semi usw. von der Marge des Model S abziehen? Genauso der massive Ausbau des Service-, Vertriebs und SC-Netzes der dem Model 3 Start vorausgeht? Was würde das über die Profitabilität des Model S aussagen?
Gegenfrage: Was sagt die Brutto-Marge von 25% oder 30% oder was auch immer sie jetzt gerade haben über die Profitabilität der aktuellen Modelle aus? Ist das jetzt profitabler oder weniger profitabel, als z.Bsp. bei Daimler oder Toyota oder Skoda? Wenn das nicht bestimmbar ist, wozu ist die Zahl dann da und wird prominent in IR-Newslettern und Conference-Calls angegeben?
Warum sowas? Ich denke das Ziel ist relativ klar und die Ergebnisse sieht man beispielhaft hier unten ...
Tesla (TSLA) has industry-leading gross margins, better than those of other auto industry ...

Musk said that once at full production, he expects the Model 3 to generate around $20 billion in revenue per year for Tesla with $5 billion in gross profit (or 25% gross margin).

Tesla's gross margin is actually quite impressive and higher than rivals Ford (NYSE:F) and General Motors (NYSE:GM), specifically because Tesla only plays in the niche luxury segment right now. On a gross profit basis, Tesla made over $18,000 per vehicle last year.

... while noting that margins could reach 25% at some point in 2018. This is impressive, considering that the company’s far more expensive Model S and Model X vehicles garner similar margins (Non-GAAP automotive margins stood at 25% last quarter). Tesla’s Detroit-based rivals, GM and Ford, typically see gross margins of under 15%. The relatively high gross margins and planned volume ramp could help Tesla move towards operating profitability, as its fixed cost allocation improves.

Wall Street analyst George Galliers from Evercore ISI forecasts that "Tesla will do in three years what it took Porsche 10 years to do... following the buildout of the Model 3, [as] Tesla has the potential to achieve sustainable gross margins comparable to those of high-end German auto brands, while growing more like a rapidly advancing Chinese automaker."

Ist ungefähr klar geworden, warum das ein Problem ist? :-)
